Believe it or not, I only caught the Taobao bug a month ago (no joke!). Maybe it’s FOMO or just the long-awaited convenience of Taobao’s new English interface but I finally get why Singaporeans are obsessed. It really does have everything you could ever want — especially things you didn’t know you needed.
Given Taobao’s popularity among new homeowners, I took a deep dive into its world of home gadgets and let’s just say, I fell down a rabbit hole. I gotta share some of my finds, which might look wacky but they’re surprisingly practical.
And, what better time to get these products than during Taobao 11.11 sale?
